We are back and Cody Rhodes makes his way to the ring.
Cody asks Seattle what do they want to talk about. Cody says it is a redundant question. Cody says he has a singular focus. When he came back, he talked about Seth. Then he talked about his torn pec. Then he talked about Royal Rumble. Then he talked about Wrestlemania and finishing the story. Cody says they need to navigate this fog together. At Wrestlemania, under the brightest lights in the main event, he lost. He says he lost to Roman. It was a polarizing moment. You pointed fingers at him. He did not calculate or adjust to the lengths that Roman Reigns would go. Cody says he lost and he is sorry. Cody says his friend Matt told him being in the main event matters. What does it matter if you don't win the main event. That is being said by people who have won the big one.
He says he also heard Mr. Heyman says if he is ever to challenge again for the championship, he's got to earn it. Earn it? That refutes and dismisses his career and his life. Going from Dashing to Stardust to the main event. Cody says he is IT.
Cody says the only thing more embarrassing than having a rubber chicken next to your head instead of the two titles you wanted to win, only to go to work the next day to seek a rematch and offer up your innocence to the Beast and he didn't repay it. Why did Brock do what he did? Was he not happy with his spot on the card? Cody says he can understand that. Brock is uncertain about him. Uncertain about the hype around Cody. Change that would directly affect everyone, including Brock. Why would Brock wait until his back is turned? If you are Brock Lesnar, why would you ever be uncertain? When Brock looks in the mirror, he sees a predator. He sees a college wrestling champion. He is a double hall of famer. He looked at Rock, John Cena, Randy Couture, and The Undertaker and sees victim. Is that what you see when you look at him?
He says when he is posed with the question are you scared of Brock Lesnar? Yes. You would be crazy not to be scared of Brock Lesnar, but he wants to fight him. He says he is so scared of what Brock did, he is going to strike at any point. He will not leave any opportunity. He wants Brock to see prey the next time he looks at himself in the mirror. It can be anywhere, any time, any place. Brock isn't in Seattle. What do you say? Face to face, eye to eye, for the first time ever, Cody Rhodes versus Brock Lesnar at Backlash.
Cody tells Brock to answer the call.
